+
+ * This release includes a lot of code cleanups, especially related to
+ security. Direct buffer modifying was replaced in several places
+ with a new buffer API, which provides a safe way to do it. Code that
+ looks unsafe contains @UNSAFE tag to make auditing easier.
+
+ + Support for SORT extension. Originally I thought about not
+ implementing any extensions before 1.0, but too many people want
+ webmails which want SORT. THREAD is another extension which they
+ want, but we don't support it yet.
+ + imap_listen and imaps_listen settings now accept "*" and "::" to
+ specify if we want to listen in IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. "::" may
+ also listen in all IPv4 addresses depending on the OS (Linux does,
+ BSD doesn't)
+ + New setting: default_mail_env can be used to specify where to find
+ users mailbox. Default is still to use autodetection.
+ + New setting: imap_log_path to log logins etc. informational messages
+ to different file.
+ + We support now separate mbox file for INBOX folder, no need for
+ symlink kludging anymore.
+ + Support for keeping index files in different location than actual
+ mailboxes.
+ ? Disabled mailbox_check_interval setting by default, it breaks
+ Evolution.
+ - SEARCH was still somewhat buggy, especially with laggy networks.
+ Also body/header searches might have crashed or at least used
+ memory too much
+ - Deleting messages in the middle of mbox caused dovecot to reindex
+ the following messages as new messages (ie. change UIDs and set
+ \Recent flag).
+ - Digest-MD5 auth: Initial server challenge packet was missing a comma,
+ which might have made it incompatible with some implementations.
+ - Some more fixes to unnecessarily high memory usage
+ - SELECT and EXAMINE often printed UNSEEN reply or maybe complained
+ about corrupted indexes. Happened usually only with mbox.
+ - FETCH BODYSTRUCTURE gave incorrect reply, breaking pine
+ - LIST was pretty buggy with mbox subfolders
+ - CHECK command returned just "missing parameters" error
+ - DELETE didn't work with mbox folders
+ - CREATE mailbox<hierarchy separator> failed always.
+ - CREATE and RENAME didn't create required hierarchies with mbox
+ - RFC822 date parser didn't handle single digit days correctly.
+ - login_process_per_connection = yes didn't work with imaps port
+ connections which is exactly where it was mostly wanted.
+ - ssl_disabled = yes didn't disable listening in imaps port
+ - process limiting code didn't compile everywhere (eg. FreeBSD).
+ - Linux sendfile() was never detected
+ - We didn't work at all with gcc/PowerPC
+
